PEAK Portable Power Station 300 and 175 Watt Tailgate Mobile Power Outlet

If you’re like me, you love to be practical when it comes to giving gifts. If possible, I even try to find something that is multi-use because we all know you get more for your money that way. For my nieces and nephews I’m the boring aunt and usually give shoes or clothing because I know they need that kind of stuff. For the adults, I usually try to find either the same thing or some sort of gadget that I know will make life easier. While initially, the PEAK Portable Power Station 300 or 175 Watt Tailgate Mobile Power Outlet wouldn’t have crossed my mind to give as a gift…let me tell you they are a Godsend and great to give!

So I guess you’re wondering why I’m so overzealous about these products. Well, it all starts off with the PEAK Portable Power Station 300. As women, we’re seen as the weak. While we know that’s not the case, that’s just what we have to deal with. You know how it works, take your car to any mechanic and they see dollar signs above your head. Or maybe when something difficult comes up, your husband steps in the way to take over. You can call it chivalry, but a lot of times I find it quite annoying that I’m not given enough credit to take care of situations by myself.

That brings us to this morning. I actually woke up to the weatherman saying that it felt like 1 degree outside. I should’ve known that was a bad start to the day. Here lately down in Georgia we have had these unseasonably cold days so my husband always starts my truck when he leaves to take Mr. B to school so it will be ready and warm when I leave. Well, this morning he forgot. When it was time for me to leave for work, I got in my truck and it would not start.

So here I am painfully pregnant in 1 degree weather with no running truck and now late for work. Livid, I got on my cell and called my husband and explained to him how he failed and how I wouldn’t now be late if he’d tried to crank my car earlier. (While this step did not help my situation, my hormones felt it was necessary. Oh, and no, I’m not contradicting myself here on what I said earlier.) He said that he was close to home and would be there soon to help me. So ladies, this is where I did us all proud. I pulled out the PEAK Portable Power Station 300, hooked it up to my battery, simply turned a knob, and jumped that sucker off all by myself. The truck started and there was peace with the world. My husband drove up just as I got the truck started and I told him I didn’t need a man, that I did it all by myself!

I was so lucky to have the PEAK Portable Power Station 300. What if I hadn’t been at home? What if my husband had been out of town? There’s so many different variables that can put us in danger with a dead battery. While I would hope no one would be in the same situation, it’s a relief to know that if it happens again, I’m covered.

The PEAK Portable Power Station 300 is super easy to use! You simply just attach the jumper cables to the battery. You can’t mess this up! Before you try to start the car, there’s a light on the box that will light up red if you didn’t hook it up right or green if you did. Once you’re set up, you just turn the knob then go around and crank your car. That’s it!

In addition to offering 300 instant starting amps (600 peak amps)to get your car started, the PEAK Portable Power Station 300 also comes equipped with a 260 PSI air compressor/inflator, one 12V DC power outlet (for running/charge cell phones, work lights, radios and many other DC-powered accessories), and the exclusive LCA™ (Low Charge Alert) technology which lets you know when you need to recharge the PEAK Portable Power Station 300. So if you get a flat tire or find your cell phone is dead, you’re covered!

So if there’s any women (or really anyone for that matter) on your list who would like to be more liberated and safe when out and about, you should definitely consider giving the PEAK Portable Power Station 300 this year. Oh and get one for yourself too!

On the other side of things, the tailgater on your list would sure love to have the 175 Watt Tailgate Mobile Power Outlet. We frequent a ton of football games at the University of Georgia and tailgate a lot! I just wish we had the 175 Watt Tailgate Mobile Power Outlet before so our tailgating experience could’ve been better! The 175 Watt Tailgate Mobile Power Outlet simply plugs into your lighter and it coverts the power so that you can plug in and run things like tv’s and lighting. Of course, you don’t need it just to tailgate, this would be great for campers too!
